La Arboleda

d got back to us so quickly with any questions that came up. The grounds are so beautiful with all there landscaping, you have flowers blooming everywhere waterfalls and a river. They offer you so much when you book this venue, table, chairs, fire pits, lighting, amazing bar, two suits ect…… I would highly recommend this venue to anyone.

so it was the perfect distance for us to get out of town for the weekend and not feel like we’d driven all day and night to get somewhere we could breathe. Most importantly, it’s in central coast wine country and if you’re into Pinot Noir like I am, you’ll love being walking distance from incredible wineries. We came here wine tasting and one of my favorite wineries directed us to this venue for our wedding and it is seriously a hidden gem! The grounds are beautiful. The owners are really helpful and awesome to work with. They even helped me get great local deals from wineries and breweries they had connections with for our wedding. The whole weekend went by so fast. I’m so happy we chose this as our venue. We can’t wait to come back for an anniversary!

to make his wedding weekend exactly what he and his wife envisioned and it felt so easy! It was so nice to be able to do the rehearsal dinner, wedding and Sunday brunch all in one location. The other huge bonus was having the ability to bring in different caterers and vendors for each event to make it fun for both our families. We had so much fun planning the rehearsal dinner and the venue owners were so helpful. The online planning tools they sent us made it really simple to figure out table layouts and they even had their staff set it all up before we arrived. I definitely recommend this venue for a relaxing wedding weekend in Santa Barbara’s wine country.

's about a 2 hour drive from where we live. In our search for venues, each one seemed to lack something, so we decided to just go look at La Arboleda in person. As soon as we arrived for the tour, we knew it was going to be the place we got married at. Not only did we fall in love with the layout of the venue (on-site Bridal and Groom suites, the most beautiful bar and dining pavilion, large dance floor, etc!), we instantly felt like we were friends with Chelsea, the owner. The entire planning process was so easy with them, and it never felt like a "business deal", like the previous venues we looked at. One of the other deciding factors for us was that we got the venue for 4 days! We made the most of this time and had our rehearsal dinner at the venue as well. Our guests could not stop talking about how beautiful the venue was and for weeks after, people kept asking how we found such a perfect place! Another bonus is that because the venue is SO beautiful, we didn't need to do much decorating and let the venue just be the most beautiful backdrop for our big day. La Arboleda helped make our wedding day the best day of our lives and we could not be happier that they are the venue we chose!

and Chelsea just made the entire process so easy. Some of my favorite aspects: - The pricing is straightforward and simple. You get the entire property, along with all the tables, chairs, etc. for 4 full days, which made setup and breakdown a breeze. AND we stayed on site, so we didn't have to worry about the logistics or cost involved in separate accommodations! - The venue is so beautiful on its own that we barely had to do any decorating. We kept our "theme" simple and rustic, with lots of DIY personal touches. Our guests loved it, and we loved doing it. - It's so unique. I can tell you from experience that you won't find another venue that has all the rustic feel you want but all the modern amenities as well. - Chelsea! Chelsea was so helpful throughout our planning process - from giving us insight/recommendations for local vendors to helping us come up with a rainy day plan. You can tell that this place means the world to her, and she gives each wedding the personal attention it deserves.

accommodate to our needs that we didn't even think of. We had the venue for 4 days and 3 nights and couldn't be more happy. We were able to have our rehearsal dinner there the night before the wedding as well. The venue is breath taking and they have done such an amazing job at creating the best venue in the area. They are so sweet for creating a walk way for where I wanted the guest to enter. We couldn't have had our dream wedding if it wasn't for this venue.

ogether the most amazing venue and package, which no doubt will be a great success! Location: It's a walnut orchard situated in the middle of beautiful wineries - it really can't be better. If you are lucky (as we were), you will get a chance not only to get drunk in multiple tasting rooms around the place, but also try some amazing organic walnuts! Another important location point, La Arboleda is 15 minutes from town of Solvang (read: touristy and expensive) and about the same from Lompoc (local, budget, but still nice). Our wedding guests were able to choose from accommodations that fit any budget and style, which we found extremely helpful. Venue: Specifically build for weddings / events with a lot of creativity and taste. Classy or rustic style – can be decorated either way. Quality and professionalism: As I mentioned earlier, it's a family business, and we were their first official clients / wedding. I have to say I am very impressed with the Chelsea and her family. We got a very personal treatment, quick responses to all our requests and they even made customized changes for us. For example, per our request on a short notice they changed restroom building entrances to a rustic barn doors (the restroom building is very central and restrooms would end up on most of our pictures). With the changes it looked as a natural part of the setting. We were treated and felt like we are a part of their family. As we were planning and setting up the wedding ourselves, this personal touch made a huge difference in our experience. Pricing: Very competitive and very thoughtful. The cost is on a lower end for the area. It’s not only the price; it’s convenience and reduced stress that makes it so great. Their price INCLUDES tables, chairs, heaters, barrels, etc – all the major additional expensive rental pains at every other locations we’ve checked. They have a large pavilion, so you won’t need to rent a tent either. And their tables perfectly match the setting btw! Almost forgot, it includes a bride and groom cottages on the premises that fit 4 people each (in case 1 bride and 1 groom is not enough for you). On a serious note, it was very helpful as we brought a few friends to help with the setup the day before the wedding, and we all had a place to stay and hang out. The place was in the last phase of construction in early November, so it should be all beautifully finished by now and ready to go! Yes, it’s still brand new even after our wedding. Thank you, La Arboleda! We had a great experience working with you and an amazing wedding!

ht in the heart of Santa Barbara wine country with tons vineyards around and even a fish-filled stream & rotating water wheel right on the property. The staff of La Arboleda were immeasurably accommodating to all of our needs, and given that it was a night-time winter wedding, were many. A large performance stage was perfect for our DJ to play music all night long, but I could easily see a full band rocking out on stage, and since we were out in the country we didn't have to worry about sound ordinances as we danced the night away. Spanish-style casitas allowed us to have plenty of options to have separate photo, gift, and cake areas as well. I would wholeheartedly recommend this place, and could even see us doing something again here in the future.

ate the venue felt. We had a live band and an out door ceremony and couldn't have been happier with our venue selection. We can't wait to come back here years from now to do vow renewals! Also, the venue owners were really easy to work with and very helpful.

y accommodating and responsive to all of our questions. This venue set itself apart with it's spacious yet intimate ambiance and picturesque location. We were able to have a full bar and there was no 10:00 pm music restriction. I would highly recommend La Arboleda for any wedding, we received so many compliments during and after the wedding.
